Dr Michael Oficins

Family general and cosmetic dentistry sits close to the Hempstead commons at 141 N Franklin St, where Dr Michael Oficins sees patients of all ages. Routine cleanings and fluoride treatments keep smiles routine, minor oral surgery is available under local anesthetic, and porcelain veneers often slot into Saturdays. They also handle cracked crowns and deeper decay through straightforward root-planing sessions, making single-visit fixes more likely.

The office hosts two hygienists, each running a tight schedule between exams, bite-wing X-rays once every twelve months, and small fillings on the same day appointments allow. Emergency walk-ins after school hours clear abscesses or displaced fillings, and the place keeps nitrous oxide on hand for the youngest patients. Crown re-cementing and small soft-tissue grafts appear in the back room, giving the practice breadth beyond routine prophylaxis.

Call ahead for a quick slot or bring a referral from another provider; flip to directions on the map for a straight run down Franklin. You’ll find the parking strip reliable before 4 p.m. It’s the corner you’ve probably passed without noticing.
